What is the maximum PoE+ power available per port on the 7024P?

The PowerConnect 7024P supplies up to 30.8 watts per port on all 24 ports simultaneously with an optional external power supply. This supports high-power devices including wireless access points and enterprise VoIP phones without requiring separate power infrastructure.

How many switches can be stacked together, and what is the stacking bandwidth?

Up to 12 PowerConnect 7024P switches can be stacked and managed as a single unit through dedicated stacking ports. The stacking architecture supports 64 Gbps bandwidth, enabling high-speed inter-switch communication and seamless redundancy across multiple physical devices.

What is the switch fabric capacity and forwarding rate?

The 7024P features a 176 Gbps switch fabric capacity with 125 Mpps forwarding rate, delivering wire-speed performance across all 24 Gigabit ports. This non-blocking architecture ensures consistent throughput without oversubscription or congestion.

Does the 7024P support Layer 3 routing and VLAN management?

Yes, the 7024P is a managed Layer 3 switch supporting 12,000 IPv4 routes and 6,000 IPv6 routes. It supports up to 1,000 simultaneous VLANs, enabling complex network segmentation, inter-VLAN routing, and enterprise-grade network architecture.

What are the power consumption specifications?

Maximum power consumption is 87.5W with no PoE+ ports active. With all 24 ports delivering maximum PoE+ power (30.8W each), consumption reaches approximately 796W. The 80 PLUS-certified power supply ensures efficiency of 80% or better across all operating modes.

What uplink and expansion options are available?

The 7024P includes four combo ports (SFP or Gigabit Ethernet) and two stacking module bays supporting optional 10GbE uplink modules. This enables flexible connectivity to core infrastructure and supports mixed Gigabit/10GbE network architectures.

Is the 7024P suitable for data center deployments?

Yes, the 1RU rack-mount form factor, 176 Gbps fabric capacity, Layer 3 routing, and stackability make it ideal for data center aggregation. The switch supports up to 32,000 MAC addresses and comprehensive security features required in enterprise environments.
